I love this type of movie: of two wills battling each other in one room. And more and more of the truth slowly emerges. The 7 stars are for the plot and for Laurence Fishburne, who once again proves to be one of the more intense actors around. Co,m meany, although in a small role is forceful and believable. But what pretty much ruined the film for me is Ryan Phillipe. I know this is just me, but I don't like him as an actor much at all/ Lord knows how he keeps landing these fairly big roles. It seems he wanted to do some "acting". He over emotes in most scenes, and that accent.Memories of Kevin Costner in 'Robin Hood'. I kept having to laugh. It was the most ridiculous potpourri of garbled nonsense. And had zero to do with a Dutch accent. To anyone who has seen the film: why even bother with the accent? It had nothing to do with the plot. But I do think one gets used to it. I think he sort of forgot about thr accent after a while LOL. Decent flic; carried by Fishburne.
